South Tahoe High School construction trades students build dog houses for community

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Each year, South Tahoe High School (STHS) students in the construction trades program put their skills to the test by building sturdy dog houses for the community. Under the guidance of Morgan Amsden, students learn essential construction techniques, including framing, siding, trim work, and roofing.

Once completed, these high-quality dog houses are offered free of charge to interested community members. This initiative not only provides valuable hands-on experience for the students but also supports local pet owners.

To request a dog house, please contact Career Technical Education Liaison Rob Canny at rcanny@ltusd.org. Supplies are limited, so be sure to reach out soon to secure your very own well-built dog house delivered to your home at no cost.

District leadership extends its gratitude to the STHS teachers and students for their hard work and commitment to serving the community.
